Volume 1, Chapter 26: A Matter of Life and Death, Quickly Summon the Old Master from Seclusion!
Gong Shiyu had previously inquired about his grandfather from his father's trusted confidants, learning the full sequence of events. He even retained memories of personally witnessing the man commit atrocities against his own son and grandsons, all of which he recounted to his younger brothers without reservation.
The bright red robe she wore did not look gaudy on her; her pale face held a sickly beauty. With slightly furrowed brows, long, curled eyelashes, and bloodless lips, everything about her seemed exquisite.
Xiang Lai looked at this dark-faced man who seemed to have eaten gunpowder with surprise, blinking in confusion. Was there really a need to get so angry over something like this?
Qin Lie and the others were in the middle of a discussion, yet figures of cultivators were already appearing all around, rushing toward the ball of light ahead.
However, the tremors were clearly felt across the globe. In some places, it was as if an earthquake had occurred, resulting in significant damage. The death toll was undoubtedly high.
During their meal, one of them stared at the other with burning eyes, while the latter occasionally glared back, only to be met with a flattering smile. This went back and forth several times. The patrons in the restaurant, already captivated by Gong Shiqin’s appearance, were now even more drawn to their antics.
Just as Shang Yue’s mind was stretched to the limit, prepared to exhaust all her strength to parry this strike...
Seeing that victory was within his grasp, Wu Jun let out a triumphant, sinister laugh, his eyes filled with cruelty.
Outside, flames soared to the heavens, accompanied by incessant screams and the sounds of slaughter. Gong Shiqin was extremely worried about Di Baobao’s safety. Seeing that his younger siblings were secure and that his side had only suffered minor injuries among a few guards, he threw a parting remark to his eldest brother: "I’m going to find Baobao!" and took off first.
In an instant, those ahead closed in, and those behind pursued in haste. Countless demonic beasts swarmed toward Liu Zhi from all directions. The scarlet figure of the shadow-skimming beast flickered like a candle in the tide, on the verge of being extinguished at any moment.
It was impossible for the Xiezhi to reach their hands into hell; after all, they would not want their own territory to be interfered with or dictated by others.
"Stop it, that tickles~" Fang Xirui giggled and twisted her body, her full, rounded hips accidentally brushing against someone. She left behind a faint scent of perfume that made one's heart flutter.
Utilizing spatial power, the two moved several miles with almost every step, leaving the Gold-Devouring Demon Emperor far behind.
Mo Li nodded in satisfaction. One cannot reach a thousand miles without taking the first step; every breakthrough is accumulated bit by bit.
Even though yesterday had been full of events, Zhou Ze tossed them all to the back of his mind the moment he woke up, contentedly enjoying the vibrancy of the morning.
"Since your home is on the other side of the river, how did you get over here?" Shen Qi asked again.
"Forget it then." Yang Guo had to smile brightly as he tied his old companion back onto his back. If he forced a sale, it wouldn't fetch many points anyway; he might as well carry it himself.
Clearly, he was merely a pawn used by the Yuan Sect to test the waters. Although his cultivation was high, his actual strength was not particularly outstanding.
The nurse wasn't ignorant; she simply couldn't speak. In fact, the "Tiancheng Mining Group" printed on the back of the man's work uniform already explained a great deal.
"We’re here, this is it." Luna pointed to a silver-gray building. At the entrance, one could see young students coming and going; this must be some kind of student dormitory.
Unable to even spit out the blood from biting his tongue, Chen Jinting stared unblinkingly at Gong Ping, who stood near the sphere outside the secret chamber, watching to see if she would suddenly disappear again.
Furthermore, if he were to go to Jiangnan Province to work with Huang Dingbang, it would be another challenge. Compared to himself, an outsider, Huang Dingbang held the advantage of local ties and personal connections. Coordinating the team’s dynamics would be a true test of his capabilities. This was indeed a very thorny matter.
However, it was impossible for them to know the truth. Thus, in their eyes, Hu Xuan’s actions were no different from betraying the clan. The Tiger King, Kaila, was instantly filled with murderous intent, his body glowing with the radiance of battle energy, ready to strike on the spot.
Cheng Jinmei had no idea so many things had happened to her younger sister, and Yun Zheng’s family lacked the means to handle such a situation. This was not something that could be made public; if it went wrong, it could cost two lives. After much deliberation, Cheng Jinmei could only suggest that her sister terminate the pregnancy, though the road ahead remained uncertain.
Consequently, the attacking force, primarily composed of the Beiyang 10th Division and the 1st Patrol Division of the Zhejiang Army, pressed forward without hesitation against Lu Diping’s 11th Division of the Youth Army.
I said nothing. She tucked her arm into mine and we walked forward. It seemed we had never done this before, which made me feel a bit awkward, yet she seemed to walk out with me in high spirits. Once outside, we stood there, and the night breeze suddenly grew somewhat warm.
Gazing at the magnificent golden palace before him, Yang Wang could never have imagined that it housed an old man nearing death. Just then, he witnessed with his own eyes three beams of light descending into the Qiankun Palace, silent and unseen.
In an instant, Nie Zhenbang understood. The No. 5 Chief was in charge of organizational work. When it came to the personnel transfers, promotions, and appointments at the provincial and ministerial levels, the No. 5 Chief held significant sway. It now seemed clear that the No. 5 Chief had summoned him for precisely this reason.
"Have you seen my eldest brother?" Qin Feng lit a cigarette, and Yang Ziqian, in his arms, sensibly helped him light it.
Although the Wind Wolf’s spirit had reached its limit due to the effort of controlling its killing intent, it still struggled to issue commands while its hand stirred a gust of wind, blowing away the swirling dust.
